A KILMAURS pub welcomed a familiar face from BBC Radio 2 as Owain Wyn Evans made a stop during his charity challenge.
The broadcaster visited The Weston Tavern on Main Street while taking part in his Four Nations Cycle Challenge in aid of BBC Children in Need.
Owain is undertaking a journey of nearly 400 miles from Glasgow to Cardiff, travelling through all four nations of the UK to raise money for the charity.
The challenge began on Monday, November 9, when he departed from the BBC's Pacific Quay headquarters in Glasgow.
During the first leg of his journey, Owain travelled through Stewarton before arriving in Kilmaurs, where residents were encouraged to come out and show their support.
The Weston Tavern welcomed the presenter for a refreshment break before he continued his journey.
Owain is completing the challenge on a yellow, spotted bicycle named Shania Chain, while carrying a Pudsey Bear backpack.
His route will take him towards Cairnryan, where he is due to catch a ferry to Northern Ireland before continuing his journey.
The presenter is aiming to complete the challenge in central Cardiff on Friday, November 13.
Members of the public who wish to support his fundraising efforts can make donations through the BBC Children in Need website at bbcchildreninneed.co.uk.
